Get ready for a deep dive into vulnerability with Mimi Park, a Field Chief Technology Officer at Databricks.
Mimi grew up in Korea, where she “essentially didn’t have a voice,” she tells us. So when she started her career in the U.S., “I wanted to be like everyone else, but me.”
Thanks to a personality assessment, Mimi learned it was ok to be herself and she began to open up to her co-workers. Today, Mimi leads with vulnerability to build trust and authenticity with her team and her boss.
“The thing about vulnerability is that it can only come from a sense of security,” Mimi says. She points out there’s a time and place to be vulnerable in the workplace and we discuss when it’s psychologically safe to do so.
